Epson Expression Photo XP-850
Epson's Expression Photo XP-850 is a top-of-the-range, six colour all-in-one with all the extras, like CD/DVD print, duplex, fax and ADF.
Three paper feed sources ; Touch panel controls ; Unusually small footprint
Tray and display won’t auto-retract ; Much slower print than claims ; 100-sheet main paper tray
Sockets at the rear support USB, 10/100 Ethernet and phone line connection for the fax. Epson’s software bundle handles printing, scanning and faxing and there’s a three month trial of Corel Draw X6.

A Multifunction Photo Printer : Epson Expression Photo XP-850
The Epson Expression Photo XP-850 is a multi-function device that is aimed more at the photo enthusiast than a general purpose user.

Epson Expression Photo XP-850 printer
An all-in-one unit with a small size and an ability to produce fine photo prints
High-quality photo prints ; Small footprint ; Google Cloud ready ; ADF and auto-duplex
Motorised output tray and screen ; Can't scan directly to USB sticks
Epson's XP-850 has a 6-ink system that a great job on photo prints, and unit overall is an interesting proposition. It's small and mostly intuitive to use, and it has essential home office features such as an auto document feeder and auto duplexing....

Epson Expression Photo XP-850 Small-in-One
The Epson Expression Photo XP-850 Small-in-One inkjet MFP offers almost any multifunction printer feature you can think of.
Simplex (one-sided) and duplex (two-sided) printing, scanning, copying, and faxing. Prints on discs. Ethernet. Wi-Fi.
Below-par text and graphics quality. Low paper capacity.

Review: Epson Expression Photo XP-850 Small-in-One Printer
The Epson Expression Photo XP-850 lives up to its name with super-nice photos that print speedily. It also has well-priced inks and enough efficiency features to make it useful in a home office.
Great-looking photo output ; Automatic duplex printing and scanning
Washed-out color graphics on plain paper ; Clunky push-scan setup

Great-looking photo output; automatic duplex printing and scanning
Washed-out colour graphics on plain paper; clunky push-scan setup
The Epson Expression Photo XP-850 would work well as a photo printer that will occasionally double as an office MFP. It’s at least one feature better than the Canon Pixma MG8220 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One, which lacks an ADF. The HP Photosmart...

Epson Expression Photo XP-850 Small-in-One Printer Review
Sure you can pick up a more affordable All-in-one printer out there, but the Epson Expression Photo XP-850 Small-in-One Printer is a premium all-in-one printer that packs in a lot of features, all despite its compact footprint. The Epson Expression...

Consumer review (which.co.uk)
Only a couple of months on but good so far
I've had this Multifunction device for around 3 months now and its working very well. I particularly like the fact I can set it up for automatic fax reception. I've set it up to auto-answer faxes after 6 rings and my answerphone connected through this...
